Black Orpheus (1959)
10/10
One of the best ever
3 January 2018
I consider this movie the most beautiful I have ever seen. It is a complete and total delight to both the ears and the eyes. But its appeal to the heart is what has caused me to watch it many many times. The final scene with the little boy playing the guitar and the other little boy and the girl dancing while the sun rises, gives me a great feeling of hope and always brings on the tears. In fact I am starting to cry right now thinking about it. I can see why some people dislike the film because it has no special effects, crashes, explosions and the like and also the purists who object because it is not done as a Greek tragedy. They have their reasons but I have to admit they are missing something very special.
